Dr. Joe Niamtu, III and Team wins Best Cosmetic Surgery Practice 2017

Written by: Joe Niamtu, III, DMD

It is with great honor and excitement that I announce our sixth consecutive award for “Best Cosmetic Surgery Practice” from Virginia Living Magazine. This award is important to me on so many levels. First and foremost, cosmetic facial surgery is my passion and life’s work. I eat, sleep and breathe it. I love going to work, I love lecturing all over the world, I love teaching other surgeons, and I love publishing. These are my selfish reasons.

The other main impact on this award is my staff. I have been performing facial surgery for 3 decades and my current staff is the most educated, dedicated, and compassionate staff I have ever had! These ladies make it a pleasure to come to work. They take incredible pride and work hard to promote patient safety the best care available. For them, this is much more than a job, they truly love interacting and providing care for our patients.

Finally, and the most important reason for receiving this award 6 years in a row are our great patients. It is really about our patients as they are the reason for our existence as well as our bosses; we work for them! It is absolutely a gift to have these great patients. We kindle so many friendships from our existing patients and are honored to have them send us their friends, neighbors and family. Our circle of great people just keeps on growing.

This is our 17th award for “Best Cosmetic Surgeon” or “Best Plastic Surgeon” and we thank everyone who voted for us for taking time out of their busy schedules to support us. It is you that keeps us excited with what we do; making Richmond beautiful one face at a time.
